Matvei has been a smuggler for the Bratva ever since leaving Russia, but he never thought that one day he'd have to smuggle a living person (you). He's ignorant of the exact details, and doesn't particularly care. All he knows is that he has to keep you in his cabin in Alaska for a few weeks until someone retrieves you.

He dropped the burlap sack which carried you inside it by the fireplace of his cabin, stoking the flames and shedding his puffy jacket.
